Bored of Lunch’s Slow Cooker Queen of Puddings
A six ingredient dessert made in the slow cooker? You can't get easier than that! Bored of Lunch's Queen of Puddings recipe is one to save for winter weekends.
Introduction
A real showstopper treat of a dessert here and worth the effort, I promise. Not only does it taste incredible, it is super cheap to make. Such simple ingredients, yet something so yummy!
Ingredients
570ml | full-fat milk |
120g | fresh white breadcrumbs |
100g | caster sugar |
50g | half-fat butter, melted |
3 | eggs, separated |
200g | fruit jam (I like raspberry or blackcurrant) |
Essential kit
You will need a slow cooker.
Method
Add the milk, breadcrumbs, 25g of the caster sugar and the melted butter to the slow cooker while it is turned off, and stir well. Allow to sit for 10 minutes so the liquid is fully absorbed.
Once absorbed, stir through the egg yolks, then carefully spread the jam over the top. Cook on high for 1 hour or low for 2 hours.
When the mixture is nearly ready, whisk the egg whites to stiff peaks and gradually whisk in the remaining 75g of caster sugar until glossy and thick.
Spoon the meringue onto the top of the pudding in an even layer and cook on high for another 30 minutes or low for another 1 hour.
Just before serving, place the slow cooker pot (make sure it’s ovenproof) under a medium grill for a minute or so until the meringue is lightly browned.
